Maschine/Traktor MIDI Issues

[DJ Robzilla]

It seems that by default the Maschine's pages do indeed overlap... why would native instruments map it this way? That makes absolutely no sense... now I have to manually assign the MIDI notes one at a time... annoying.

Do I need to change the MIDI channels or something?

No, just make sure the pad pages are enabled in the Controller Editor, otherwise the bank selectors act as regular buttons.

PS: I know too much for not owning one.

Yeah, sometimes controllers are set up by default fucking stupid. *shrug* It's not just them. The VCI-100 original mapping was balls to the walls idiotic. It's like they TRIED to make it annoying.

[DJ Robzilla]

Yea, this is pretty epically annoying right now. I have to go in there and manually change 64 different note values.... this is gonna be a much bigger project than I thought lol

[DJ Robzilla]

What I'm wondering is why hasn't this been fixed with an update? maschine has been out for AWHILE... and this seems like it would be an incredibly easy fix (especially if it would take me the space of an evening to fix it myself)

[DvlsAdvct]

Make sure you save the presets. Don't want to do double the work

[DJ Robzilla]

How do I do that? Thank you so much for your help so far!

And edit the notes in the assign tab, not on the labels in the maschine pic

[DJ Robzilla]

Hehe yea I knew about that part... just finished remapping all the notes on the maschine, now to save it as a file and start back on this mapping proper.

I do realize now why they did it this way out of the box. I guess the last 12 or so notes are reserved so there aren't enough notes for all 64 notes you would need to fill up all the groups. They made them overlap as kind of a shitty workaround, but I think the way I have it setup is far more ideal... much easier to work with!

I will upload the .ncm file when I get back from lunch in case anyone else wants to use the fixed version i made! :-)
